Top 3 celebrity crushes?
I don’t really keep up with the lives of big name celebrities. I’m more into reality television. So I apologize if no one on my list rings a bell.
1. Kehlani. This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. She’s absolutely stunning and while I’m not typically into tattoos, they work for her. I’m also obsessed with her music.
2. Vanessa Hudgens. Yes, I’ve seen all three High School Musical films. Gabriella Montez was my childhood crush growing up. Screw Troy Bolton.
3. Jourdan Dunn. The first time I saw her was during one of Victoria’s Secret fashion shows. I thought her and Joan Smalls were the most gorgeous models on the runway.

•Race
Discrimination and under-representation within the fashion industry still manages to make its way to the headlines and invade today's industry. However due to Covid-19's appearance in 2020 the fashion industry and many famous names in fashion have promised to change and have vocalised their help and support against discrimination after the overwhelming amounts of discrimination and brutality around the world at the time.
Many people believe that the overwhelming support against those in the Black, Latinx, and Asian communities were publicised with the industry and the public only starting to care about these problems because of the inequality within the world.
"What is it that is going to concretely make any kind of difference within the industry now that we have a spotlight?" Christina Tung
Samuel Ross British menswear designer.
“From 2016, social media started shifting the industry hierarchy. Young people of color started seeing other people of color with their vernacular and body language, building audiences or moving into subculture fashion publications. There’s lots of lip service but not that much clear information about what it takes to be successful in a racially biased industry. There’s so much still being said in the voice of a Black monolith and not about the individual experiences and tribulations one can face. So I’ll keep talking.”
Naomi Campbell.
Campbell being a young, outspoken, black model at her prime became an inspiration to many young individuals, starting her career at just 15 years old Naomi was one of the six models to be named a supermodel in her era and was the first black model to be seen on the cover of vogue and Time france.
The essential need for diversity at Fashion Week isn't just relegated to the runway. Too often, models of color must contend with limited resources backstage which is now normalised. Jourdan Dunn, Nykhor Paul, and Leomie Anderson spoke out about stylists who are unequipped to work with black models. unsurprisingly the inadequate styling and preparation for black models isn't new in fact At the beginning of world famous Naomi Campbell's career, the iconic supermodel recalls dealing with stylists who were unprepared to work with black models. "When I was younger, I encountered this same issue. I would be backstage at shows and there would be stylists who didn’t have any experience working with black models," "It’s disappointing to hear that models of color are still encountering these same issues all these years later."
Liu wen.
The famous model Liu Wen most famously known for being the first ever Asian person to walk a Victoria secret runway and chinas first ever supermodel, Liu completing many of the firsts for her community to hopefully inspire those of the same ethnicity.
